    This article says it is local cameras installed by local police that are being used for ice by the local police department.

    Claiming anonymous could do anything about it by poisoning AI models is absurd. Then you call out the skeptic for watching too much TV?

    Besides, Anonymous hasn’t done anything significant in 10 years They dos’ed Israel last year. Did it do anything? Was one less Palestinian killed?

      Ahh yes the local police! An infamous bastion of web security, IT infrastructure, and thinking long term. Who could ever crack the default passwords on their IT setup? How could we ever hope to social engineer these above average intelligence elite local cops into plugging in a usb drive to their work computer. This is all definitely impossible, no local police branch has ever been a victim of ransomware so we know for sure it can’t be done and deserves all the cynicism and comparisons to Hollywood movies from the 80s.

      Of course we also know that by “anonymous types” I meant that one specific group of people you have in mind who did that one thing 10 years ago and not just socially conscious programmers with basic knowledge of social engineering and web infrastructure. That would be a ridiculous thing to mean of course.

        It’s your claim that Anonymous would do anything when they won’t and do it by AI poisoning that’s absurd.

        If your initial claim was, “It would be a shame if someone hacked their local police.” it wouldn’t have sounded like you just watched Mr. Robot.

      Prolly had to take a break while getting DDoS then obviously went back online and made up the lost ground.

      These children won’t kill themselves
